Deviled Ham

Deviled Ham Dip

Before You Get Started

• This is a perfect way to use up any leftover Easter ham, but you can always buy ham from the deli counter at your grocery store! Since we’re starting with the ham cubed, have them slice the ham really thick – keep your ham cubes 1-inch or smaller. Larger than 1 inch and it might stress your food processor.

• Keep in mind that you can always adjust the amount of hot sauce to your taste.

How to Make This Recipe

1. Mix Everything Together
   Fit your food processor with the standard “S” blade, then toss all the ingredients straight into the food processor bowl. Pulse everything together a few times, stopping when the ham is finely chopped.
2. Make Adjustments
   Taste the mixture and adjust the ingredients however you want. Add more mayo or mustard for a creamier consistency and tangier flavor. Kick up the heat with a little more hot sauce. You can even add salt and pepper if you want.
3. Chill the Dip
   When you’ve got the flavor and texture how you like it, transfer the deviled ham from the food processor to a bowl and cover it with a lid or food-safe plastic wrap. Pop the bowl into the fridge and let it chill for at least an hour, giving the ingredients plenty of time to meld and deepen.

Serve & Savor!

When you’re ready, take the deviled ham out of the fridge and give it a quick stir if needed. Serve it as a dip with crackers, crostini, or fresh veggies, or scoop it onto bread, toast, or croissants for deviled ham sandwiches.

What I Love About This Recipe

• First of all, homemade deviled ham (or "ham spread") is infinitely better than any canned version. The texture and consistency are perfect (plus you can make it as smooth or as chunky as you like it). The flavors are beautifully balanced (plus you can adjust them however you like). It’s not overwhelmingly salty or oily or heavy. The tanginess from the mustard and hot sauce provides a nice contrast to the richness of the ham.
• I love that I can customize this recipe to my taste preferences. If I want a creamier dip, I can add more mayo. If I want a spicier dip, I can add more hot sauce.
